“I am who I am. There’s no changing that. No taking it away.”

“I like to consider myself to be an average individual. Of course, there’s probably a certain subset of the population that would disagree with this, but they can just go fuck themselves.”

“Change is ok, I guess. In small, infrequent, and easily chewable doses.”

“I’ve had that look before. In fact, this is a perpetual look of mine: the telltale 'I don’t know if I really want to be here anymore' look.”

“I am mountains that crush. I am waves that crash. I am storms that shatter. I am the end.”

“But I am your willing sacrifice, Dustin; I am the one willing to let you go in the deep hope that you will someday come back to me, come back to that moment and that understanding.Yes, I cannot breathe without you in my soul, but I also know that I cannot take your breath for you. I understand that now.”

“I am a fish.”
